Indeed they are... they have good recorded stuff, but live is where that band truly shines, definitely the epitome of a young band who just keeps growing for the better.

I've played with them a few times, they are a fantastic band and fantastic people, i'm sure they will eventually get out to your neck of the woods.

oh yeah I forgot Moggs too.

From Monument to Masses

Friends in the Mountaints

are also good.

The Whip was fantastic but sadly short lived, RIP Scotty Jernigan.

Check out the websites of all those bands, I doubt you will be disappointed, all of them are west coast though... some tour, some do not yet.

I stumbled across those guys (Ancient Greeks) on Epitonic and absolutely love them. They're my favourite new band at the moment.

Another couple of bands i'm loving at the moment that may or may not be new, young or unknown (I am in Australia are:

Zykos

Ester Drang

And a shameless plug for my own new band Minor Ache we've only been playing for 8 months or so, I recorded our two demo tunes with minimal gear but they came up sounding not too bad. We start recording our debut rekkid next week which should be fun. Hope some of you may like our stuff

Cheers,

Pinky Tuscadero's WhiteKnuckle Ass Fuck

decent. best thing i found on garageband after a night of searching not very hard.

the potomac accord from st louis. my band was placed on a bill with them at random a couple of years back, and we instantly became fans upon hearing them.

there are mp3s here

i don't know why i neglected to mention these guys in this thread before.

M83, Mils, Purple Confusion & Abstrackt Keal Agram- All are on this weird little label from France called Gooom Disques. All neat stuff that incorporates electronics and guitars. http://www.gooom.com/

I was unaware of TheSwede's music until I listened to "Untitled Last Song".

I really like this song, and I look forward to hearing more of TheSwede's music.

I feel like I praise this band alot but I've seen them 5 times and they put on the best live shows I've ever seen.
